Mage looks very powerful and a blast to play. Haven't tried others yet, Warlock and Warrior are next on my to do list, but so far Warlock doesn't look promising.
Multiple time use. Realistically - you'll get 3-4 uses out of it. I got him once - went discover>tavern up (free tavern 6 on turn 9) > discover. Got quite lucky with rolls, got first place, don't think I'll pick him again any time soon - not that fun to play.
playing tier 1 decks and getting legend is not impressive
Wasn't going for impressing anyone. It's a game - people play it to have fun in whatever way it's fun for them. If you think, that vast majority of people in high ranks do not play tier 1 decks - yeah, no. But you do you, buddyboo.
Haven't played HS for about 2 years, after losing my original account to hackers. I never made legend back then, and usually stopped climbing at Rank 5. Came back exclusively for battlegrounds lately, but decided to try my hand in ranked. Took me about 5-6 days to climb from bronze 10 to legend over 152 matches total (I had no stars - spent them in standard).
Tilt was real on D1, when several times in a row final boss was some bullshit deck like DarkGlare Lock or Big Priest. Luckily, one of those Big Priests had abysmal draws, while I had godly luck that match.
What was weird to me, is that I ran into exactly one single mirror match. This deck is stronk - overall, I had 75% WR, closer to 85% before D5. Now it's time for a Dragon/Control/Big Paladin clown fiesta experiments!
I know there is a section in the forums to talk about other things, and this thread is not breaking any site rules, but I am just so tired of coming onto hearthpwn and seeing this thread. it is taking up space and most people here don't come here to talk about game of thrones. so I would like to politely request that we close this thread.
Except Dany would never do this, and was done for the sake of the plot and to be "shocking".
Let's take a look at what Dany has done throughout the show, shall we?
Dany threatens to cut off her brother's hands if he hits her again
Dany watches without emotion as her older brother (heir to the throne over her) is melted to death by her husband
Knowing that the death of her Kahl husband will mean the end of her and her army, Dany sacrifices her unborn child to a witch in a misguided attempt to save him
Thinking all is lost, Dany burns the witch, her semi-dead husband and herself alive, only to survive and get dragons, because magic
Dany threatens to raze Qarth when they don't let her in
Dany has her Dragons incinerate the Warlock Pyat Pree
Dany locks Xaro in his vault to die of starvation
Dany burns the slavemasters of Astapor and steals their army of unsullied
Dany orders the unsullied to sack astapor and leaves the city ungoverned and in shambles to march to Yunkai
Dany sacks the city of Yunkai and leaves the city ungoverned and in shambles to march to Mareen
Dany instigates a slave revolt to take Mareen, then crucifies 163 nobles from that city
Dany has a great master burned alive and eaten by her dragons as reprisal for Ser Barriston's death
Dany gathers all the Dothraki leaders together and burns them alive
Dany declares her intent to "return their [slaver's bay] cities to the dirt," but is persuaded to by Tyrion not to do it
Dany burns the entire slavemaster's armada (what about the innocents?!)
Dany burns the Tarlys for not bending the knee
Yes. Dany is was a totally kind a delightful ruler up until season 8 episode 5. If anything is clear, its that the only thing holding her back the entire time from not doing this earlier were here trusted advisers, who are now all dead or untrusted
I stopped reading after the first two bullets. Viserys was basically Ramsay with platinum blond hair. If you take Dany threatening him or not being sad when he dies as forshadowing that she would commit mass murder, you are deranged.
Every character was violated to oblivion.And do not bring the lack of time as an excuse.How many pointless scenes we had in the last 3 seasons?Fuck it!In this season alone the entire ep2 was a complete waste of screen time and budget.
The only character that wasn't violated is... Tormund. He did what he came to do and fucked off back up north as he should have. Could argue about Davos not being ruined as well (yet, at least), but it's hard to ruin a character that done basically nothing this entire season.
What you said about Dany is true at the same time it isn't. The rule in the show is that Targaryans are nutcases. Dany lost her mind because she has the Targaryan gen. She was a time bomb, wich exploded this episode.
Except it isn't. In the show there are more perfectly sane Targaryens, than insane ones.
wasn't the Mad KIng the only insane one...like...ever.
Viserys wasn't insane, he was just kind of a dick with delusions of grandeur. Rhaegar was perfectly normal.
Yeah there's really mostly sane targaryens and the entire point of Dany was to overcome the stigma of her heritage, but ofc she doesn't because "muh symbolism and reincorporation"
I remember when Luke Skywalker turned evil at the end of Return of the Jedi because it was kind of implied.
But hey, anything to get the plot going, even if it means having a character commit unnecessary war crimes that would make even Adolf HItler denounce you.
In the show - yes, and I completely agree with you about Viserys. Let us also not forget Aemon.
In the lore though: "some members are known to be perfectly normal psychologically-speaking, other Targaryens throughout history have displayed bizarre, erratic and sometimes violent behavior, succumbing to the so-called 'Targaryen madness'."
Note though, that bizarre and erratic doesn't equal genocidal maniacs.
What about Varys? He spent all this time carefully maneuvering in service of the realm, just to launch a clumsy coup attempt while Cersei is still on the throne, sending out letters stating "Jon is a real boy" from underneath Dany's nose?

People are not happy because playing vs Priest will be uninteractive curvestone solitaire with a big FU in the end.
P.S.
Celestial Druid, lmao.
